What problem does it solve?
Running a research experiment is easy, but producing trustworthy, reproducible evidence is hard. This Skill enforces a disciplined run contract so every main experiment is comparable to its baseline, fully logged, and honestly reported.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Run Contract Definition: Locks the hypothesis, baseline, dataset split, primary metric, stop condition, and budget before any code is executed.
- Structured Planning Artifacts: Generates PLAN.md and CHECKLIST.md from canonical templates to control implementation, smoke tests, and the full run.
- Auditable Execution & Recording: Runs all commands through managed bash sessions with durable logs, then records results via artifact.record_main_experiment with metrics, verdicts, and next-action routing.
- Use Case: After selecting a research idea and accepting a baseline, use this Skill to implement the change, run a bounded pilot, execute the full training run, and produce a recorded result with a clear supported/refuted/inconclusive verdict.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to run the main experiment for the selected idea against the accepted baseline and record the results with metrics and a verdict.
